Hi I have just decided to apply for Grad school and I'm a little worried about the GMAT... I was hoping someone could tell me what exactly to expect on it and how can I prepare?

Thanks so much

Hi texas_state11,

Welcome to BTG.

To get you started, here's a free video overview of the GMAT: https://www.gmatprepnow.com/module/gener ... es?id=1250

Two things you should do right away:
1) Get a copy of the Official Guide for GMAT Review (aka OG13: https://www.amazon.com/The-Official-Guid ... 1118109791) This book was created by the test-makers and is a must-have for all GMAT preppers.

2) Take an official practice test (free download here: https://www.mba.com/the-gmat/download-fr ... tware.aspx) Taking a practice test will give you an idea of your current abilities and provide a baseline score to improve upon. Once you've taken the practice test you'll have a general idea of how much work you have ahead of you in order to achieve your target score.

After that, you might consider signing up for BTG's free 60-Day Study Guide (https://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/gmat-guide).
This will help keep your studies on track, and ensure that you cover everything that the GMAT tests.

All the best,
Brent

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
